Whats up drifters? Evol here with another hot off the press product for the RC drift movement. Team Tetsujin who I’ve written of plenty of times in the past got in touch with me to tell me about their new version of the Super Rim. Tetsujin are very proud of the fact they they had the worlds first 2 piece [...]
Weld Overdose previewed this little gem that they are displaying at the 2015 Shizuoka Hobby Show. It would seem that the ultra high end of the ultra high end drift manufacturers is embracing the “plastic fantastic” and releasing this new car in an all resin version. Looks to be shaft drive with an inline battery layout, rear motor and rear [...]
What’s up drifters? Evol here with some more cool kit for your RC drift car. This week I got the new Yeah Racing GC301 drift gyro to help you get your slide on. It’s a funny thing about gyros, some consider them cheating, but on RWD they are considered almost necessity. On the 4WD side of things I used [...]
What’s up drift peeps, Evol here with another installment of the Drift Itch. This week’s itch is aimed at those RC folks on the sidelines who have the “itch” to try RC drift but maybe they feel like they don’t have the funds to throw at a fully blinged carbon and billet drift sled. Well I’m here to tell ya [...]
What’s up drift peeps? Evol here with a midweek second look at a piece of kit that some of you may have overlooked. I know I did! So here is how it happened. When I see parts listed for the Overdose Vacula my eyes tend to glaze over as I daydream about having enough expendable income to drop such a [...]
Is RWD drifting here to stay? If the industry is any indication it is. It seems like every RC Drift company either already has one (a rear wheel drive) or is currently working on one. The idea of it is fantastic and watching videos of them in action is very compelling, but in practice it can be very difficult. So [...]
More scale drift track stuff? You’d think I would get sick of this stuff but I just cant get enough! Yeah Racing teased these 3D printed track barrier prototypes on their Facebook page last December and I’ve been waiting for them to come out ever since. It seems they are very close to coming to market as there have been [...]
It would seem that the trend in super high-end drift machines moving to more affordable versions is spreading. R31House’s GRK drift platform was one of the more expensive and rare drift chassis on the market. Now in cooperation with RC Mart, R31House is releasing the GRK Global chassis to be a little more friendly on the wallet. The 299 dollar [...]
What’s up drifters? Evol here with another installment on my Scale Drift Track build. My drift club recently got asked to do a demo at a local shopping mall so my time table on putting together a lot of these goodies to create a scale drift course ended up getting very compressed. I had just enough time to get some [...]
Fans of the popular 3 Racing D3 drift chassis can rejoice because an update to their beloved platform looms nearer to release. A few months ago 3 Racing teased some early renderings of the new chassis and it appeared to be rear motor and easily convertible to Rear Wheel Drive. During that time they have been sprinkling in little spy [...]
Sup drifters, Evol here with a quick weekend update. I’m busy running a demo for our drift club this weekend but these were too hot not to post. MST teased these tasty little morsels recently. They are so new I don’t even know what they are called yet, but man do they look good. They remind me of some vintage BBS [...]
Hey RC drift addicts, Evol here again to point out some massively cool drift bodies available for your scale drift project. ABC hobby has been in business as an RC manufacturer since 1968 in Osaka Japan. They started out making car and boat kits, but eventually moved into making a complete line up of RC accessories. However more recently they are [...]
Hey gang, Evol here again with an update on my scale drift track build. If you remember last time around we focused on the easy to get and lower cost options for building the basis of your drift track. You don’t? Well check out volume 1 Here. This time around we are going to look at couple of options for [...]
Fresh from Japan, Team Tetsujin is at it again with their latest release for their Super Rim line of adjustable offset wheels. The Jasmine wheel disk is their latest design to go with their popular Super Rim wheels for your RC drift car. The Jasmine brings with it a host of new colors including the long awaited chrome, metallic and matte [...]
I guess I can go ahead and put my foot in my mouth. I can’t count how many times I’ve said RC Drift is growing and it’s niche and it’s underground. You could really get away with saying that, until a YouTuber called Drift 44 and automotive manufacturer Lexus put it in front of the eyes of millions of viewers [...]
